  1. Hi Taras, Body kit on the way to you, should arrive today. Rear wing should arrive tomorrow. Will see you on the 2nd of May as discussed. Adrian
  2. Not really, Ricey... Got him home today and he looks perfectly fine, although they were advising he should stay in another day (begging for more £££, really). They have administered some other medication that was not on the consent form I've signed yesterday, just in case he was going to be sick, to prevent it and something else to treat his eye which were only been operated by them in January, bringing the total bill at £330!! Thought I'll start researching about them on the internet and found out this which even features the vet that has operated Bruno and recommended that his both eyes should be operated just in case!!! One was perfectly fine! Will obviously file a big complain and even take them to court if necessary! http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0 ... at_a_Vets/ Here are some photos from yesterday out playing and one few hours ago after picking him from the MediFraud... .........£250.40 or a dead Bruno though - not a bad price in my book. I've spend bloody thousands on our Degu's and they're only glorified squirrels! Hope he's better in the morning.
  3. He's a Dogue de Bordeaux weighting nearly £70kg...
  4. FFS took him for a walk today about 2pm, quite a hot day but not as hot as other days in the summer. Did not let him swim as usual which was a huge mistake, did not cool down and got high temperature 41C. On the way back home, close to our house he could not move at all his back legs. My mate ran quickly to my place, got 2litres of water, gave him some and pour the rest on him to help cooling down. 15 minutes later still could not move, panting did not help him a lot, called the vet and went there. He's now admited into for the night since 4pm, being under lots of fluids straight into his blood, ice cooled and wet towels. Heard from the vet about 2 hours ago, he's a lot better, moving around, should be back home tomorrow. Cost: £250.40. Vets rip you off these days...
  5. Where in the law says you are not allowed to take any under 12 yo kids in the Zed? I know is safer not to because of the airbag but is it really illegally?
  6. Talking about modding the beasts on other topics, he even had some eyes lifting early this year, spent £2250 on those "mods", although insurance paid most of it back... Joke aside, terrible operation, had to wear a huge collar as big as a satellite dish for 14 days before he had the stitches removed to prevent him from scratching. It happens to big breeds with lots of skins: Dogues de Bordeaux, Sharpei, etc

  8. No, is not the Japanese beast detailing, it's the French version this time. And no, is not the car, is the dog!!! No snow foam, no clay bar, no special creams and wax, no lasers to observe the swirls, just warm water, dog shampoo and some old towels The rest is in the photos. Btw, his name is Bruno, woof!
  9. Doing some simple math today while visiting my online banking I realised how much I've spent on modding the car in such a short period!

  10. Hi Bullet, As per my last PM sent yesterday and the payment sent on the 18th can you advise what happened with the promised delivery date? Awaiting for your immediate reply.
  11. Fitted yesterday, video taken today in my warehouse. Once again, thanks Tarmac!
  12. That's odd! Same here, my 4 yo daughter woke up coughing, hight temp as well
  13. That's not fair What are you doing up at this time of the night???
  14. JESUS CHRIST!!!!!!!! Just had the car back, the HFCs fitted, the exhaust sounds I need to look into the last standard OEM piece remaining, the Y pipe! Tarmac, are we going to have another group buy for Y pipes? What's going to be? Stillen, MotorDyne? In terms of sound Amuse R1 Titanium Exhaust + Berk HFC = DREAM!!! Best sound ever to me! Will try to get some video out soon. Thanks Tarmac!
  15. Hi, Just spoke to Taras, booked the car in early May, will speak to Alex to deliver the body kit straight to you guys. See you soon.
  16. Hi, Just sent you a PM, not very far from Wembley, about 7 miles. Looking forward to receiving your reply. Thanks
  17. Little update: Need: 1 Nismo Front Bumper 2 Nismo Side Skirts 2 Nismo Rear Cannards 1 Nismo v1 spoiler Spraying in GM and fitting. Quotes: 1. bmgbuk.com I will need to see the car to give an exact quote as the gun metal grey has various shades of paint. This may mean we would have to blend adjacent panels to the new parts to make sure the paint match is correct. These kits are expensive so it has to be done right or it will just look cheap. As a guide to paint and fit the kit without blending normally costs around £800 plus vat. 2. diamondbodycraft.com To paint and fit your body kit will be £700.00 + VAT... Expecting some other quotes. Do they sound expensive to you? Has anyone here used them in the past? Thanks!
  18. Got mine seconds ago, they look Calling my mate from the next door garage see if I can have them fitted today! Thanks Tarmac - Good comms, +++++++AAA seller, will NOT BUY AGAIN, I hate you as previously said! J/K
